Fuck you, South Carolina
By Michael J.W. Stickings
That's basically what South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford is telling his constituents.
His state has the second highest unemployment rate in the country, 10.4 percent, but he's turning down about $700 million in stimulus aid.
Sanford wants to use the money, if he ever takes it, to pay down debt. Which normally would be fine, except that, in case you haven't been paying attention, there's a historic financial crisis going on.
The people of South Carolina, like Americans all over the country, need help. Their governor apparently won't be giving it to them, such an extremist right-wing ideologue, such a partisan Republican, is he.
